Some other things...

 
Islamic State is a bit player in a much bigger fight. Is there a method in ISIL's madness? The unbearable lightness of America's war against ISIL. How does ISIL run cities? What happens if ISIL is defeated? This was unfortunate. A dream of utopia in hell. Drones. Growing stupid together. Gareth Evans on combating terror. The rise of the American-Muslim totalitarian state. Putin's popularity. You really can't make this up. Let's stop blaming 'the internet' for terrorism.
 A history of heroin in New York. Psychedelics can’t be tested using conventional clinical trials. If only they had guns eh? Fugn anti-vaxxers! A capital climate concensus. I feel this is a porky pie. What's a 'safe space'? No Palestinian flags here. It is not the police's role to do social work. How students are changing America. Has politically correct culture gone too far?
An exclusive interview with Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry after his studio fire. A history of Ork Records. The entire run of Slash magazine for free. Rock Scene here too. The jazz genesis and genius of Marvin Gaye. A good primer of Norman Whitfield's productions here. A history of porno soundtracks. Why Swans are more vital than ever. Documentaries about records and collecting them. 50 years of Rubber Soul. Interview with Abiodun Oyewole of the Last Poets
Death by coconut. Bill Leak has been drawing racist cartoons long before he fell on his head.

This made me laugh. This is simply incredible. I also like this. I fugn loathe Terry Richardson but (ooer missus) it's Miley. (NB the other photos in the set are (very) NSFW) Genesis however? Not so much. Sad topographies. Bonsai. Bidoun

Trolling Trump. The time Trump tried to buy justice for Mike Tyson and the rich. Trump may not be a fascist but...he has a history of racism. Although unfit for Vietnam this is frankly insane. Meanwhile in Pensacola. After Cheney it's Mormons VS Trump. Only you can prevent Islamophobia. LOL. Trump doesn't want you to know this. Why he wins...and it's getting ugly but he will not become President. Hail to the hair.
The last Trump.

When did America give up on the idea of America?
The final word goes to Karl Rove...

Jochen Arbeit + Scanner - Propulsion

Live recording of improvisation between Jochen Arbeit of Einstürzende Neubauten and Robin Rimbaud - Scanner as part of the 30th year anniversary celebrations of the band, recorded at The Forum in London, 16th October 2010.
This live set was completely improvised with no rehearsal and what you hear is exactly what the audience heard that night. No adjustments, no cleaning up, just the truly raw, edgy and thrilling exposure to the moment.
Luke Turner of The Quietus captured the concert perfectly in describing it as "Jochen Arbeit's live collaboration with Robin 'Scanner' Rimbaud was an unqualified sex, retaining a propulsive groove and stern energy despite the improvised nature of the piece."

released October 28, 2014

NB: Fundraiser for Petr Pavlensky

Petr Pavlensky is one of the main artists of the Nordwind Festival 2015. After his final action “Threat”, he was arrested and is currently in pre-trial detention in Moscow. In the early morning hours of November 9, 2015, the activist artist set fire to the front door of the Russian Federal Court FSB, residence from which in the 30s the Stalin purges were organized. Pawlenski was accompanied by two Russian journalists who documented the action.

The pictures went around the world and in Russia sparked a discussion on how citizens can claim their rights against an increasingly encroaching State. Pawlenski's prison sentence is expected to be 2 years. In Russian prisons an entirely inadequate basic care is provided, so that all prisoners are dependent on external resources. On online stores, food for the prisoner can be ordered at inflated prices for the prisoners, which makes the stay extremely expensive.In cooperation with the partners: Kampnagel Hamburg, Sophiensaele Berlin and Dresden Hellerau, the Northwind Festival is calling out a fundraiser in favor of Pjotr Pawlenski, in order to assist him in prison. The complete amount will be given to Oksana Shalygina, Pjotr Pawlenski's partner.

Handheld Tascam recording of Lucinda's rather wonderful gig in a hot and sweltering Melbourne the other night. Man the band were incredible too: Stuart Mathis on guitar, Butch Norton on drums and the incredible David Sutton on bass. She threw in covers of The Clash's 'Should I Say Or Should I Go' and Neil Young's 'Rockin' In A Free World' as well as a couple of  tunes from her forthcoming album 'The Ghost of Highway 20'. The final encore was a cover of 'It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)' which is not included as I fugn loathe AC/DC and that song

Rusker27 - In Absentia (For John Murphy)

Perhaps I need to explain myself. These recordings are deeply personal, a way of making sense of time & place. In this sketch; we have doors & lift at Arts Victoria, footsteps on Marum volcano in Ambrym Vanuatu, aluminium channels in Windsor 85', a beautiful piece for Erica & 10 or so lovely sub-bass hits via EQ. All conjured up as a memorial for John Murphy. Blessings to all xo
